TERRA TROPICA GUERLAIN TERRACOTTA BRONZING POWDER - SWATCHES AND REVIEW

Terra Tropica is a limited edition Guerlain Terracotta Bronzing Powder. It warms up the face with dual shimmering shades of peach and tan infused with flecks of gold micro-glitter that reflect the light all the while warming up the complexion. The bronzer does have a faint perfume scent (tiare flower) but it isn't overly strong. The bronzer is a little on the orange-y side and not very powdery. It gives good color payoff but a little pressure is needed when applying. Overall this is a beautiful bronzer to have in your collection.

The Guerlain Terracotta Bronzing powder currently retails for $72.00 USD and contains .56 oz of product.

"TERRA TROPICA reproduces the flattering aura of the light reflecting on skin at sunrise and sunset. As a precious talisman, it is engraved with two suns and combines a duo of shades to ensure a subtle and dazzling healthy glow."

228 TISSE CAMBON CHANEL LES 4 OMBRES MULTI-EFFECT QUADRA EYESHADOW - SWATCHES AND REVIEW

Later this year, Chanel will be releasing eight new Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra eyeshadows. Check out the link below to read more about them. Anyway I had the opportunity to purchase one of the new Chanel Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra eyeshadows in 228 Tisse Cambon. It is a quad of cool toned eyeshadows that can be used wet for an amped up intense look or dry for a soft and natural look. Check out the swatches below to see the differences in the color intensities.

The top left shade is a shimmery pearly white with a satin finish. At first swatch it seemed rather sheer but applying more pressure increased the shadows color payoff. The top left shade is a sparkle-y mauve with taupe undertones and a shimmer finish. The bottom left is a smokey purple with a slight red undertone and semi matte finish. The bottom left is a medium pink with peach undertones and a subtle shimmer. Each of the shadows has a depth and color variation that is very unique.

The Tisse Cambon quad contains a highlight shade, two regular eyeshadow shades (to be used for contrast or blended together) and one darker shade (can be used as a liner, crease color or an all-over the lid smokey eye look) to add intensity to the look. The formula is soft and build-able that increases with intensity as more pressure is applied when swatched and even more so when used wet. I found the wear time to vary depending on how the shadows were applied. Meaning when worn dry the shadows wore for about eight hours with significant fading but no creasing. When worn wet the shadows wore for about eight hours before slight creasing and minimal fading and lasted an overall wear time of about twelve hours.

619 PINK TONIC CHANEL LE VERNIS NAIL COLOUR - SWATCHES AND REVIEW

Chanel 619 Pink Tonic is part of the 2014 Summer collection REFLETS D’ÉTÉ DE CHANEL. Check out the links below to see more of the entire collection. Chanel Le Vernis Nail Lacquer currently retails for $27.00 USD and contains .4 fl oz of product. There were five nail lacquers released with this collection (one was a re-promote from a previous collection) and this is the second one I have reviewed so far.

When I first applied Pink Tonic to my nails I noticed right away how wonderful the formula was for this polish. I would even say it is one of the best because it applied so easily with no streaks and it was opaque with just one application. Once the polish had dried it maintained it's glossy shine and the color was still a vibrant fuchsia pink. The wear time for this polish was about three solid days with significant chipping at the tips by day four. If you are wanting to purchase a nail polish from this collection I would definitely recommend this one as a "Must Buy".
